So, Rainbow pretty much answered everything, thanks.
Wash your hair as often as you want. More is better. If you feel dry, or itchy, or scratchy, wash it. As long as your hair dries completely between washes, it doesn't matter how often you do. Most baby locks enjoy between 2-3 times a week.
There are too many factors to give you a good estimate on how long the process takes. Eagle had some of his locks form within a week. Mine took over a year to look like anything other that a rats nest. How long your hair is, how you sleep, how often you wash.what with, what texture your hair is, how you dry your hair, etc.
The best thing to do is forget about the fist day you started. Actively try to forget ho old hey are. Don't celebrate their week/month/year birthday. The more you focus on how old they are, the long you wil just see yourself as someone-with-locks. If you don't pay attention to dates, and picture yourself as having locks, no matter what they look like now, time will move by faster, and you will be happy andsurprised by all the progress.
You will have to rip them apart. But not until they start to congo together. Most likely that fist few weeks won't show enough progress to need separating like that. But as the start sectioning off, and the sections grab hold of other sections, that when you want to pull them apart. And don't separate them all the way to the scalp. There has to be some sort of constant state of messiness at the root. This protects your scalp from sun damage. Just make sure the body of the locks are not tangled together.
For drying, don't rub your head with a towel. It's actually counter-productive
